San Marcos Mexican Restaurant

We were sat quickly on a Saturday evening. Drinks were good and well priced. That's where the good stops. Our food order was all messed up and little was done to correct it. Kids meals and adult meals were not what we ordered. Seemed to bother our server to ask for condiments (that we asked for when ordered but were forgotten). Kids meal didn't show up with rice and beans as listed on menu. Several adults ordered the same meal and they all came out different. When addressed our waitress told us that's what you ordered. Oh, also in the men's bathroom there is NO TOILET SEAT! Huge inconvenience if you are taking a child to use the bathroom. Unfortunately a waste of money. Won't be back.

This strip in Burlington has almost every restaurant ever known, so naturally, we found the Mexican place! They were busy and seemed to stay that way, so expect a wait. Both food and drink menus are extensive, offering a variety of choices. They bring chips and salsa as yoir sitting down! There was something about the chips, we could not stop eating them! Food prices were pretty on par, but drinks seemed pricey to me. This is not a place to come if you want a quiet, relaxing atmosphere. The restaurant is nicely decorated but very bright lights and the noise level is high due to families and kids throughout.Overall good experience, good quality good! Service was friendly and efficient, and the manager came out to the dining room offlteb to check on guests and help waitstaff.

We recently had a Teambuilding event here and there were no complaints. I thought I'd try something new! It definitely made a statement when the brought it out! If you're looking to try something new, give it a chance! YUM!!

The food was fair. I ordered the carne asada tacos and they were yummy. Though, I wish my sides were warmer, especially the beans. My friend decided on a chicken quesadilla but mentioned the wasn't enough cheese provided. Overall, the seasoning and flavors were good. The interior was decorated with some lovely art throughout. Upon being seated, I didn't feel crowded though several large groups were dining in during my visit. A friend and I decided to stop in for a late lunch on a Sunday around 1 pm or so. The service was swift and pleasant. I didn't catch our server's name but he made sure we were well accommodated.

Some friends persuaded me to join them for dinner and to see a live band play rock. We had an amazing time, the food was amazing and the drinks were great. We got shots for all of the group and I loved the little bull carrier they brought the shots in. The ambiance was perfect for the evening and we had a blast!

In my journey to find some authentic Mexican food reminiscent of West coast quality, I tried San Marcos out. The atmosphere of the place was cool and the wait staff seemed accommodating and attentive. The first thing I noticed upon being seated was that there was a large tear in the seat at my booth. Things happen, but this seemed like it had been neglected for so long and they didn't seem concerned to repair it. Just a bit odd for a seemingly nice building, otherwise.The food was fair -- about the same as what I've had thus far. What is up with all of the nacho cheese type sauce on the burritos? Is that a Carolina thing? Only a month here, and so far, every Mexican burrito has had that. Y'all know 'wet' typically means red enchilada sauce, right? Not nacho cheese on everything.It's almost as if they use the nacho cheese to make a bland burrito have some flavor. Food was fair, prices were fair, but I am not eager to return here unless someone absolutely wanted to go and drag me.

My wife and I came here for lunch a few Sundays ago. This is one of our "go to" spots in Burlington. This time I tried some new things and not "the usuals"Wow! I'm glad I did. I tried the Chile toreado appetizer. Jalapeño grilled with onions lime juice and salt. It has heat (if you like it a little milder then remove the seeds). This was amazing!I was in the mood for steak so I had the carne en su jugo. It's strips of bottom round steak cooked in a green Chile enchilada sauce with other veggies. I highly recommend trying some of a the traditional Mexican food on the menu. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

This place in nice; The decor is cool, service is pleasant, the music is a lil country, pop, r&b and all with a Latin spin. Of course the food is very good! The outdoor seating is small and bland, but present.The food is always consistent and what you expect. I always enjoy the shrimp ceviche with avocado. It's creamy and the shrimp have a nice sweet flavor. The whole fried fish is awesome! Super crispy skin and well flavored. It's married to a salad with pico and rice. The presentation makes it seem more expensive than it is. If you can eat the whole fish m, you are boss! cause it's a large portion.I love coming on Sunday/funday. The margaritas are pricey but good with a shot on the side your day is complete. If you are a soup fan: the tortilla chicken soup is complete. Full of chicken, rice, and veggies. A year round solid option. I pair it with a enchilada and I am sleepy when done.Done forget the birria tacos, that my next meal.Enjoy

My favorite Mexican restaurant in all of NC! I've been going here for over a year now and they never fail to give me an amazing experience. Always seated as soon as I get in and the food always comes out so fast. My usual is the enchiladas mexicanas and I will never get tired of it. No harsh lighting or loud noises: everything here is perfect. I will never stop coming here.

The service was excellent and the food delicious I highly recommend this place close to Alamance crossing
